Tanzanite-Blue Fluorite Cluster – Etched Crystals – Fujian, China
This beautiful cluster showcases a rare “Tanzanite blue” hue, naturally etched across the crystal faces. Originating from Fujian, China, the fluorite exhibits fine cubic growth with light to medium blue tones, occasionally showing deeper zoning under strong lighting. The partial dissolution across the surface gives it a complex, layered texture, making it an ideal addition for collectors specializing in fluorite.
